Ghost of a Rose

The valley green was so serene
In the middle ran a stream so blue...
A maiden fair, in despair, once had met her true love there and she told him...
She would say...
"Promise me , when you see, a white rose you'll think of me
I love you so,
Never let go,
I will be your ghost of a rose..."

Her eyes believed in mysteries
She would lay amongst the leaves of amber
Her spirit wild, heart of a child, yet gentle still and quiet and mild and he loved her...
When she would say...
"Promise me , when you see, a white rose you'll think of me
I love you so,
Never let go,
I will be your ghost of a rose..."

When all was done, she turned to run
Dancing to the setting sun as he watched her
And ever more he thought he saw
A glimpse of her upon the moors forever
He'd hear her say...
"Promise me , when you see, a white rose you'll think of me
I love you so,
Never let go,
I will be your ghost of a rose..."

Lyrics Blackmore's Night

There are not words that come close to expressing, what I’m feeling when I view this work of art... you take my breath away.... and all i can do is... Thank you for telling US all view it. Just one small question; Why isn’t the Rose white?

The emotion in this is so provocative. The more you stare at it, the more you get the chills and have to look at it some more. I believe it’s the eyes in contrast to the perfect roses.

Is there a trick to doing roses that I haven’t discovered yet? =) Truly inspiring, this is!
